    "ocrText": "Shultz - page 4\nK: When they are scheduled we can do it, but so far we don't really have a formal\nagreement yet.\nS: Right. I think it is important to give attention to how that information is put\nforward SO it doesn't seem contradictory to other things.\nK: Exactly.\nS: Finally on my list, there is a subject that's been under discussion for some time\non international investment flows in the OECD. Casey has been handling it in the\nState Department. The subject has been, and I guess mainly because the State\nDepartment seems to be our representative in the OECD. Right now the subject\nis in danger of sort of falling between the stools. It's something we have felt, was\nof course, to duscuss and with Casey gone, his thrust disappears and anyway I\nthink there is probably more expertise on this subject in a fellow like Denham\n(phonetic) than you find over there. I would like to suggest to you that you consider\nhaving some different form of representation in the OECD and perhaps let Denham\nhandle it or somebody else handle it.\nK: In principle I'm in favor of that, but these things, they always bleed SO much\nover here. Let me raise that here.\nS: You've got to do something about it because there is a meeting scheduled that\nmay get postponed or we may have to ask for a postponement because we're not\nreally ready with a strong person to put forward there.\nK: Right. I'll try to get to it tomorrow.\nS: OK, now finally I have a suggestion for you for your Under Secretary of State\nfor Economic Affairs.\nK: Who ?\nS: The name is Alan Greenspan (phonetic).\nK: Oh yes. I know him.\nS: You know him?\nK: Yes.\nS: I think he's a very talented fellow. I don't know whether he could be gotten\nto do it, but he's smart as he can be. He fits your description of wanting somebody\nwho is analytically able and is experienced and savvy. He's more of an analyst\nthen he is an operator but he has enough of the operational, not to be sort of\nbrittlé. He is a very good analyst and knowledgeable fellow."
